Census of Victorian Minerals. 261 



Contains slight excess of sulphur which it evolves when 

 heated in closed tube. 

 Garnet. — var. Ahnandine. 



Crystals in the granite of Mount Taylor. The creeks below 

 contain them in large quantities (CI.). 

 GoTHiTE. — Hydrous sesquioxide of iron. 



Limestone Creek, head of Murray River (CI). 

 Graphite. — Carbon, mostly impure. 



Rather earthy; evidently from a small vein, Riddle's Creek 

 (M.Dt.). Coating metamorphic slate, 8tawell (B.M.). 

 Occurs surrounding troilite and as independent masses. 

 Cranbourne No. 1 Meteorite (F.); Beaconsfield Meteor- 

 ite (C); Cranbourne No. 2 and Langwarrin (W.). 

 Analysis of Cranbourne No. 1 : — 



Carbon - - - - 89-661 

 Hydrogen - - - 0-257 



Residue (iron, etc.) - - 10-412 



Gypsum. — Hydrous calcium sulphate. 



Pulverulent. Bridge water on Loddon (B.M.). 

 var. Seleniie (D.M.). A group of crystals with somewhat 

 convex and pitted faces, single crystals of common 

 form plentiful, Sewerage works, Hannah Street, South 

 Melbourne* (W.). 

 Hematite. — Sesquioxide of iron. 



var. Micaceous. — Soft and very micaceous, near Mount Wills*" 



var. specular. — -In hexagonal plates in a druse in basalt with 

 labradorite and calcium carbonate, Batesford, near 

 Geelong (W.). 

 Tabular crystals with labradorite in dolerite, Redan, Balla- 

 rat (B.M.). Specular iron in basalt may be regarded 

 as a primary constituent. 

 Herschelite. — var. of Phacolite. 



The occui-rences recorded under the name of herschelite 

 should be placed under phacolite, because Victor von 

 Lang, at that time of the British Museum, was misled 

 by insufficient analyses and crystallizations (U.). 

 Hornblende. — var. of Amphibole. 



Massive outcrop, Glenmaggie (CI.).
